Tottenham to table offer for Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish

Tottenham are to make an offer for Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish.

The Sun says Spurs are to make a £15million take-it-or-leave-it bid for Grealish.

Spurs' chairman Daniel Levy aims to put ChampionshipAston Villa's cash woes to the test.

Villa's board met yesterday to discuss how to avoid a winding-up order — the club must find £11m this month for outstanding player payments.

Chairman Tony Xia wanted a bidding war for midfielder Grealish ,22, to ease Villa's budget by £40m and satisfy Financial Fair Play.

A rumoured Chelsea bid has yet to materialise and Levy may take advantage.
